I Heard It Through The Grapevine Meaning

[[Verse 1]
Ooh-ooh, I bet you’re wondering how I knew
‘Bout your plans to make me blue
With some other guy you knew before
Between the two of us guys
You know I love you more
It took me by surprise, I must say
When I found out yesterday
Don’t you know that

[Chorus]
I heard it through the grapevine
Not much longer would you be mine
Oh, I heard it through the grapevine
Oh, I’m just about to lose my mind
Honey, honey, yeah (Heard it through the grapevine, not much longer would you be my baby)

[Verse 2]
I know a man ain’t supposed to cry
But these tears, I can’t hold inside
Losing you would end my life, you see
‘Cause you mean that much to me
You could have told me yourself
That you love someone else
Instead
, [Chorus]
I heard it through the grapevine
Not much longer would you be mine
Oh, I heard it through the grapevine
And I’m just about to lose my mind
Honey, honey, yeah (Heard it through the grapevine, not much longer would you be my baby)

[Verse 3]
People say believe half of what you see
Son, and none of what you hear
But I can’t help being confused
If it’s true please tell me, dear
Do you plan to let me go
For the other guy you loved before?
Don’t you know

[Chorus]
I heard it through the grapevine
Not much longer would you be mine, baby
I heard it through the grapevine
Ooh, I’m just about to lose my mind
Honey, honey, yeah (Heard it through the grapevine, not much longer would you be my baby)

[Outro]
(Yeah, yeah, yeah)
Honey, honey, I know (Heard it through the grapevine, not much longer would you be my baby)
That you’re letting me go (Yeah, yeah, yeah)
Said I heard it through the grapevine (Heard it through the grapevine, not much longer would you be my baby)
Ooh, heard it through the grapevine (Yeah, yeah, yeah)]
